Description

Handcrafted sterling silver earrings with a little chip of blue china. A square piece of china (about 7mm) from the Coalport Canton pattern is attached to a handmade silver back with a sterling silver post and butterfly. These little china chip earrings are real handcrafted designer sterling silver earrings at an affordable price. This colourful Coalport Canton earthenware dates back to the 1930s and is becoming increasingly popular with china collectors. It's a joy to work with. Not only is the earthenware softer than porcelain, making it easier to grind into shapes, but it is full of surprises. As I begin to work with it, unexpected random shapes and patterns begin to appear - it is so much more than just flowers - there are blobs and swirls and wiggly bits!
